We released a rating of the most actual films and TV series on IMDb. https://kinonavigator.ru/catalog/films/imdb_actual_movies https://kinonavigator.ru/catalog/serials/imdb_actual_series it is availble more

We released a rating of the most actual films and TV series on IMDb.

https://kinonavigator.ru/catalog/films/imdb_actual_movies
https://kinonavigator.ru/catalog/serials/imdb_actual_series

it is availble in the right column and in "Movies and TV Series" / "Actual" menu.

This rating is calculated based on the dynamics of the number of votes on IMDb. At the same time, it includes both new films that are quickly gaining popularity, as well as old films that, for some reason, have seen a surge in interest.

Sometimes you can understand why - say, interest in the old film "Road House" is fueled by the recent release of a remake. But I don’t know what the recent increased interest in the film The Lobster and the work of Guy Ritchie is connected with...

And India (the main distortion of IMDB) got there a little too. I thought about filtering it on purpose, but it turned out that it was. in general, it’s not necessary - the vast majority of these Indian masterpieces are simply not in our catalog :) and what remains can be easily filtered by banning India.

However, not everything in this ranking has a high IMDB rating.

It was also possible to include it in the calculation, and raise films that not only quickly gain ratings, but are also rated well, but we have not yet done this.

We have radically changed the calculation of the film's popularity. Now popularity is calculated based on data not only from Kinopoisk, but also from IMDb.

The measure of a film's popularity plays an important role on the site - the default sorting of lists is tied to it, it is used in calculating recommendations, and the popularity filter is almost always used.

Previously, when calculating popularity, we focused mainly on the number of rates for films on Kinopoisk (strictly speaking, Popularity was this number of ratings).

Just a couple of years ago, this approach worked quite well. However, as Kinopoisk gained popularity as a cinema, the distortions associated with this began to increase. and now they have become intolerant.

The number of ratings on Kinopoisk no longer reflects real popularity. Films and TV series actively promoted by Kinopoisk gain more ratings in a matter of months than Titanic, Avatar or Game of Thrones.

And now we have begun to consider popularity as a certain weighted average number of ratings on Kinoposik, Kinonavigator and IMDB, which does not coincide with any of the numbers. This takes into account distortions.

IMDB, by the way, also has its own distortion - Indian TV series :), but it is not as significant as the distortion on film search. But we also take it into account

In general, sorting by popularity began to look decent...

Gift for movie fans: we have updated TSPDT ratings to 2024 status. If anyone doesn’t know, these are lists of the best films according to critics, compiled on the basis of more than 5 thousand sources. more

Gift for movie fans: we have updated TSPDT ratings to 2024 status.

If anyone doesn’t know, these are lists of the best films according to critics, compiled on the basis of more than 5 thousand sources. We merged these lists with our movie database, and they are available from our “Movies and TV Series” menu (on mobile - “More” / “Movie fans”)

• The greatest films of world cinema
  
• The main films of the 21st century
  

But that's not all - we've also added convenient tools for researching these ratings. They have been compiled every year since 2008 (films of the 21st century - since 2015), and change noticeably every year. And these changes are interesting.

Moreover, the ratings themselves (top1000) represent the “tops” of longer lists (we call them “Candidates for...”). These lists exist for every year, and films do not disappear from them. Those. the whole history is available - in what year, what position in the long list each film occupied.

Last time, when I just added these ratings, I wanted to make some tools for that. to observe the history of ratings in general and individual films. These tools are now presented on the website.

1. Each film that is in the rating or candidates for ratings has a number next to the information about it - how much its position in the rating has changed since last year, and a “History” link that opens the history of its rating by year.

2. Links from the menu to ratings now lead not just to the selection page, but to a special page.
   

On this page

• You can view the rating both unfiltered and filtered (this is convenient, since you don’t need to reset the filter to see the full rating)
  
• There are the usual tools for sorting lists and filtering by the presence of ratings/marks.
  
• Besides this. There is a special tool for rating analysis.
  

In addition to the entire rating, you can view lists

• Ranking newcomers (films included in the top 1000 this year)
  
• Losers (films that left the top1000)
  
• Growth Leaders (films whose position has increased)
  
• Leaders of Fall
  

Moreover, since these lists are relative, you can also choose a cut-off year. The default is last year.

It's clear. that not everyone needs this. but for movie lovers, studying these ratings and their dynamics provides good food for thought...

The ability to submit a request to add a movie is now available not only on the search page, but also from the Movies and TV series menu.

And it's now able to recognize not only movie search addresses and link to a movie, if we already have one, but IMDB addresses.

P.S. Please do not abuse, as I have to add films on request - no one else does this, although many people have this opportunity. . . .

We have a new recommendation method (and, accordingly, a recommendation list) "Like recently viewed"

The method (and list) "Similar to the ones you liked" we have always had. But it takes as a basis estimates for the entire history of using the Movie Navigator and Imhonet. As a result, I personally (and I suspect many other old users) have this list full of world and Soviet film classics.

For the past year, I’ve been watching movies and fiction. And not always really good - often want to see some dynamic nonsense like "Fast and Furious", for which I have forecasts are not so good. And there is no moral strength to watch serious films, and they have been dusting in Deferred for years.

So you can assume that I made a new method for myself, although for sure it will be useful to someone else. I like the result so far. . .

It works like this:

1. The latest films/series that the user watched (rated) are collected (in an amount of no more than 50 pieces and, if possible, for a period of no more than a year). This takes into account the date of viewing, which is put together with the assessment - i.e. if you note that you watched a long time, these films do not fall into the sample.

2. We select films similar to those on this list.

3. They are sorted by a tricky function that takes into account 4 factors.

• Forecast
  
• The number of films to which they were in similar
  
• Evaluations of these films
  
• The degree of proximity to these films
  

In the recommended method include films with a not very high prognosis. But they can always be filtered by installing a filter according to the forecast estimate. . .

Moreover, for this method, a high priority is set, i.e. when choosing films by successive leafing, such films will come across quite often.

The corresponding recommendation list is still available to everyone, although it will be useless for those who have few grades. . .

P.S. I have long been thinking of premium users to open access to settings of recommendations parameters - the frequency of use of certain recommendatory methods, and adjusting their understandable parameters.
But will anyone bother with that?

Important changes to the mobile version.

1. On the film page, the button bar was replaced with icons.

But since the two rows of icons are not very beautiful, the main control panel on the film page is hidden and opens with the “arrow down” icon in the series of film icons.

It is assumed that on the movie page it is not very necessary - less often than the main action buttons with the film.

2. in the poster presentation of lists and in the showcase (main page), a button is added that opens the action buttons and additional information on the poster.

This button is decorated as a triplet in the lower right corner of the poster, and duplicates the functionality of a long press on the poster. By the way, how many people use this long press on the poster? In principle, its processing can now be removed altogether.

And if you have any ideas - how to make this button more clear - write.
